ARC ~ Activities Recreation & Care

for Individuals with Developmental Disabilities

Building people & community through programs & activities, while promoting the welfare of individuals with developmental disabilities.

Quality of life &Living Beyond Expectations

Have you ever met a marathoner with developmental disability?  Well Rafael & Tim are not only best friends, they are also both marathoners with developmental disabilities. Together they have finished 5 marathons (along with an aide who runs with them) To them ARC is a place to live & continue  learning, friendships & lifelong memories These two guys not only want to run, but they want to do it in honor of their friends at ARC and to raise money for things like nature outings, field trips, basketball, bingo night, books...

 Rafael and Tim have both overcome many obstacles in their lives.  Tim, now a very sociable man, didn’t learn to talk until he was 7 years old. Rafael only learned to spell his name at 40 yrs of age.  Life has been a marathon for the both of them and ARC has been along on this journey of growing and learning with them since they were pre-teens.  As they age so do their friends and ARC is continuing to be devoted to promoting health and wellness for people with developmental disabilities.

Tim & Rafael have encouraged their friends to join them in becoming more fit and Angela & Antoinette have decided that they want to walk/run the full 26.2 miles with Team ARC. Angela & Antoinette may be the first women with Down syndrome to complete a marathon.  

All of this is possible through
